Description
Even if you are feeling well, it is important to have a snapshot of your health to evaluate potential problems or current problems that may not be exhibiting symptoms. Proceeding with more comprehensive lab testing can help with your path to wellness.
This panel includes the following test:
Complete Blood Count (CBC)
Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP)
Follicle-stimulating Hormone (FSH) and Luteinizing Hormone (LH)
Free T4
Hemoglobin A1C
Lipids
Testosterone
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH)
Vitamin B12 and Folate
Fasting recommended.
Additional information about each test is listed below:
A complete blood count (CBC) is a common blood test that can help assess a woman's overall health. It can help diagnose conditions, monitor treatments, and identify unexplained symptoms.
A Comprehensive Metabolic Panel (CMP) is important for women's wellness because it provides a snapshot of their overall health by assessing key bodily functions like liver and kidney function, blood sugar levels, electrolyte balance, and protein levels, allowing early detection of potential issues like diabetes, kidney disease, or liver problems before symptoms may appear, making it a valuable tool for preventative healthcare during routine checkups
Follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) are crucial female reproductive hormones produced by the pituitary gland, primarily responsible for regulating the menstrual cycle by triggering follicle development and ovulation, making them vital for fertility and overall reproductive health
A free T4 test measures the amount of free thyroxine in your blood, which helps assess your thyroid's health.
The Hemoglobin A1C test plays an important role in diagnosing prediabetes and diabetes. Risk assessment: The higher your A1C level, the greater your risk of developing diabetes complications such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, eye problems and nerve damage.
Lipids are fatty compounds that perform a variety of functions in your body. They're part of your cell membranes and help control what goes in and out of your cells. They help with moving and storing energy, absorbing vitamins and making hormones. Having too much of some lipids is harmful.
Testosterone is important for women's health because it helps regulate mood, energy, and sexual function. It also plays a role in bone density and reproductive health.
Thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) triggers your thyroid to release its hormones, which mainly impact your body's metabolism. High TSH levels usually indicate hypothyroidism, and low TSH levels usually indicate hyperthyroidism.
Vitamin B12 and folate (B9) are important for women's health because they help with red blood cell production, brain function, and DNA repair. They also help with immune function and mood.
